Oh my, what a shocking ending, it only amplified your point, of what bullying can do and undo for some innocent people. It can drive the victims to depression and suicide or they can turn saints to maniacal devils and can kill bullies to earn their freedom. I like the poem for its strong social message. Thanks for sharing. God bless.

Yes, this one is pretty powerful stuff.
I cannot fathom the minds of bulllies. When I was in school, if you didn't 'like' someone you just wouldn't bother with them. This is an epidemic today with no end in sight. It is too easy to 'find' targets. more prolific due to more opportunity through social media and so on.
I liked the short and to the point verses that you used. Simple language to convey meaning rather than rhetoric.
Nicely done.

Comment from rjuselius
this is an important and tragic piece of social commentary! why do adults not get involved with disputes between youngsters? why force someone on to the path of doom? children can be so cruel and so vulnerable.
thank you for sharing dear anon!
good luck in the contest!

There is no bad person on earth, every one has for the good reasons to live. But sometimes circumstances are bad that one falls into trouble resulting to fatal results. Lessons learned from the narrative of this poem. Do not be affected by provocation chances are more damaging.
You did an excellent job in writing this poem. God bless.} Lin

The art is a mirror to society. This poem is an instance of a societal mirror. The lesson here is: when your child isn't happy, find out why.
A line in this poem says: there is no rhyme ... Yes, there is no rhyme.

Hi,
Excellent portrayal of what one can go through. Bullying has reached such an unreal degree. So heart-wrenching for these kids to deal with.
I like your simplistic approach, it speaks volumes.
Good luck in the contest.
Cheers & Blessings

'Bullied to Death' is an extremely well-written, but more than a little depressing piece. Bullying is just too much for so many victims. It was a privilege to review a work of this calibre.

This is a sad poem on a sad subject. Bullying is destructive, even when it does not lead to killing and suicide. Good luck to you in the contest, Jeanie Mercer

Your poem is an impactful one about bullying, mystery poet. We all know that some school shootings have occurred because of bullying. More and more, schools are trying to address this problem. I think, often, though, the schools and the parents are not aware of the severity the issue.
Your abcb rhyming is perfect, and your meter is well done, with a great flow. I am particularly moved by "wide-awake nightmare."
Well done. Your is a strong entry for the contest. Best of luck! Alana
